Romiplostim drug aliquots can be used for in vitro or in vivo experiments. For biosimilar development, different batches of Romiplostim drug can be ordered at the same time. Several other reference drugs are also available.
The drug aliquots are generated by aliquoting (dividing and repackaging) the EU-licensed reference drug.

| Drug name | Nplate® |
| INN | Romiplostim |
| API type | Fc-peptide fusion protein (peptibody) |
| Pharmacotherapeutic group | Antihaemorrhagics, other systemic haemostatics |
| ATC code | B02BX04 |
| Target of antibody | TPO receptor (also known as cMpl) |
| General function | Romoplostim is indicated for the treatment of primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in adult patients who are refractory to other treatments (e.g. corticosteroids, immunoglobulins). Nplate is indicated for the treatment of chronic primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in paediatric patients one year of age and older who are refractory to other treatments (e.g. corticosteroids, immunoglobulins) |
| Short description | |
| Pharmacodynamic properties (Mechanism of action; Source EMA document) | Romiplostim is an Fc-peptide fusion protein (peptibody) that signals and activates intracellular transcriptional pathways via the TPO receptor (also known as cMpl) to increase platelet production. The peptibody molecule is comprised of a human immunoglobulin IgG1 Fc domain, with each single-chain subunit covalently linked at the C-terminus to a peptide chain containing 2 TPO receptor-binding domains. Romiplostim has no amino acid sequence homology to endogenous TPO. In pre-clinical and clinical trials no anti-romiplostim antibodies cross reacted with endogenous TPO. The pharmacokinetics of romiplostim involved target-mediated disposition, which is presumably mediated by TPO receptors on platelets and other cells of the thrombopoietic lineage such as megakaryocytes. |
| Pharmacodynamic properties (Pharmacodynamic effects; Source EMA document) | The pharmacokinetics of romiplostim involved target-mediated disposition, which is presumably mediated by TPO receptors on platelets and other cells of the thrombopoietic lineage such as megakaryocytes. Due to the formation of neutralising antibodies pharmacodynamic effects of romiplostim in rats were often decreasing at prolonged duration of administration. Toxicokinetic studies showed no interaction of the antibodies with the measured concentrations. |
